But except for this, and the fact that he lived to a considerable age-he died a little more than a year ago, aged seventy-one-his career followed the classic pattern of the reckless, feckless bohemian, as careless of his life as he is of his talent, and who burns up both In pIcturesque dissipatIon. For U trillo was talented. But-and I hope I don't sound like a reformer-no one has ever been able to drink his way to greatness, and while the legends about him might have suffered, U trillo might have been a far better artIst, perhaps a truly great one, if his life, both emotionally and artistically, had been more orderly" This IS hard to demonstrate (who can prove what might have been?), but I thInk there are oblique indicatIons all through the present show. F or one thing, the early paintings, f " Q ' M I " d . or rom ual d aquaIs, one In ] 906 and loosely Impressionist in style, on down to "Le Jardin de Renoir," which was painted around] 910, are in many ways the best-particularly in their far wider outlook. At that time, he was interested more than he ever was afterward in the variety of subjects that landscape painting afforded. He was in- terested, too, in theIr atmosphere-the effects of sheer weather upon them- and so the range is from the dark, leafy "La Guinguette à Montmagny," through the greener, airier "Rue Dre- vet) Montmartre," wIth its banked slope of shrubs and flowers, to the somewhat Pissarroesque long street vista called "Rue de la J onquière." In general, it was not till his White Period, a little later (ironically, it was the one that marked the beginning of hIS success), that his work settled into that rather formalized method of presentation in which the subjects-a street or a street corner, a church building or a square- seem to exist, a bit drearily, in a chill vacuum not only airless but timèless, or at least devoid of the effects of sun and shadow, wind and calm, that go wIth changes of the weather. In his last paint- ings, this summary absence of interest in the elements as they might affect his presentation becomes more pronounced, as does his tendenc} to stIffen the out- lÎnes till they look as if they were done on a drafting board. Yet there are excep- tions-one can't be arbitrary about art-and compensations.
